Portfolio overview

Invista North America S.a.r.l. has been granted 172 US utility patents between 2015 and 2021, placing Invista North America S.a.r.l. at rank #2,277 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 68 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in C07C (ACYCLIC OR CARBOCYCLIC COMPOUNDS). As a US Corporation, Invista North America S.a.r.l. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Invista sits between AGS Llc (172 patents, rank #2,273) and Sulzer Management Ag (172 patents, rank #2,281) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 53.7/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 26 grants, compared with 146 in the 2015–2019 window, a -82% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Invista North America S.a.r.l.'s 18.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 68 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Invista North America S.a.r.l. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
